"Stomach fit full of bees." Yes, yes, yes - I love sensory details like this. I don't just picture it, I feel it.

This has the distinct stamp of vagueness I see in most of your writing (if I haven't made it clear before, I actually love your poetry for that) but I'm stuck in the mire on this one. I can gather, I think, that it's about a suicide... but it almost feels as though it needs one or two more details to bring it into focus, or one or two fewer to leave it up to broader interpretation.

Love to write

Thank you, I'm so glad you enjoy it. It wasn't actually written about suicide it was written about leaving a friend or something similar. I can see now how you could interpret it that way though, it's always interesting when that happens!
